Crisp and clear audio
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought these to upgrade old surround speakers, after I hooked these up I couldn't believe how much punch they had and could hear the slightest and subtle tones I couldn't before. I decided to upgrade center channel speaker as well. The sound quality is suppurb, can't beat for the price

Great sounding speakers!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great, and needed pairing for my old Sony Receiver STR-DE597. Had the speakers that came with the receiver all these years. Decided to upgrade, and got these. They sound amazing, especially with the 12" 400 watt powered subwoofer, I have connected to it. All the music sounds awesome from Frank Sinatra to Rebelution to Kendrick Lamar. Thanks Sony.
I would recommend this to a friendNice sound for nice price!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I read several reviews on different speakers in my price range. I decided to buy the center channel speaker and was pleased with the sound. I decided to complete the set with the bookshelf’s and am amazed at the difference in sound I get compared to my old JBL satellites. Highly recommend these speakers, especially at this price point.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat sound for small speakers
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nice compact speakers with great sound. Wanted to build on a stereo system, but didn't work out.
I would recommend this to a friendVery affordable, high quality bookshelf speakers
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased these to pair up with a Sony 4K receiver. The sound quality is simply amazing whether it's music, movies, or DirecTV. I have my entire setup built around these speakers and the Sony Core Series subwoofer. Paired all together the sound and the price cannot be beat!
I would recommend this to a friendUpgraded to 5.1
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was looking for rear speakers for my system when I saw Best Buy had these on sale. Hooked these up to convert my 3.1 system to 5.1. Greatly improved the sound from by Onkyo reciever which really did not fully operate in 3.1 mode. Much better sound quality for movies and other program and I think the speech is clearer through the center channel as well.

Decent Value For The Price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Had purchased an $800 sound system for television viewing a few years back. Was never really happy with the speakers. Good on lows by terrible on highs. Have slowly been replacing them over the years. My latest additions were these Sony speakers. My goal, to be able to listen to a movie dialogue without constantly having to adjust the sound up and down because of low volume dialogue and overbearing sfx sounds. The Sony's did a great job by bringing out more of the high-frequency sounds, such as whispers and generally higher female voices. Not the best speakers for music I've ever owned, but I didn't spend over a thousand dollars for the pair, either. Will probably purchase another set for the rear speaker set, soon.

||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought the Sony Core Series speakers from the floorstanding towers to the center channel to the bookshelf speakers to the subwoofer to pair with the Sony STR-DN1080 AVR for a Dolby Atmos 5.1.2 setup and the sound is amazing! I upgraded from a Sony soundbar and what a difference! I am definitely impressed and glad I switched! Get the entire setup on special to make it even more worth it!
